Retail Watchers

No purchase required was a great deal. The nuggets seem to have shrunk in size and are not as thick as they used to be. They were also weirdly shaped, not oval or round as they used to be. The 3.29 asking price for 6 pieces is too much. I can still go to Wendys and get a 4 for 4 meal that has 4 nug...

I'd love to see this RFID checkout. I think the consumer has stopped tolerating lines for checkout. COVID did it to people. I don't think we are going back. The amount of abandoned carts and left behind items I see in stores that have checkout line issues is significant. The number of people who com...

Cranberry Twp is a growing area that has a lot of big box retail where the Turnpike crosses I-79. https://www.cbsnews.com/pittsburgh/news/wegmans-in-discussions-to-open-first-store-in-the-pittsburgh-area-report-says/ Pittsburgh could work for them--Giant Eagle is a has a lock but is basically just ...

Dollar Tree has bought the 99 only name, all other trademarks, brands, etc. Also they got a lot more leases...

It'll be interesting to see if they use the name or what.

Obviously they were interested in the leases.

It has nothing to do with the shrimp. Ridiculous media interpretation trying to distract from the real issue the private equity rape of the chain. Must have assigned the politics reporters to this story. Tying up contracts has a lot to do with these things, in this case, Red Lobster's majority owne...

I was thinking there is no way the large Simon Mall group would possibly touch that mall... that mall was nice when the anchors were filled but the reality is its size - it was just flat out overbuilt for the area. ((shrug)) It killed off two smaller malls in the city (Pocatello Mall, today where F...

I looked up a lot of items on Target.com that I have bought the past couple months and nothing has decreased in price. Food, pet, etc. At least the prices are the SAME as what I paid and haven't gone up- which IS a positive since the grocers are posing tons of rather large price increases storewide ...

The self checkout removal project continues at this Kietzke Wal Mart in Reno. The large area of self checkouts around the grocery side of the store has been unwired and is being taken apart and will be physically removed within a day or two. They still have about 10 belted self checkouts open. One o...

The Ralphs I suspect was a store program that was not corporate authorized as signs were store made. But the Albertsons was definitely a corporate sign package for the self checkout. It was the pair type back to back, and the back units facing the Starbucks were closed. The two open ones faced the ...
